Intelligent Automation and Retargeting
Create advanced marketing funnels on WhatsApp. Set up conditional rules (like 'if recipient clicks Button A, trigger follow-up message B after 2 hours'). Segment your contacts based on tags, custom fields, and past behaviors to maximize relevance and conversion rates.
- Audience segmentation by customer tags
- Interactive quick replies and call-to-action buttons
- Timezone-aware campaign scheduling
4 Steps to Launch a WhatsApp Campaign
1. Import & Segment
Upload your opted-in customer lists and divide them by tags, tags history, or geographic location.
2. Draft Templates
Write message templates with dynamic placeholders and buttons, submitting them to Meta for instant approval.
3. Schedule & Test
Perform an A/B test on a small test group first, then schedule the winning message variation.
4. Analyze Performance
Monitor delivery metrics, button clicks, and conversation read rates from your central dashboard.

} Campaigns — Frequently Asked Questions
What types of campaigns can I run on WhatsApp?
You can run promotional campaigns (product launches, seasonal sales, event invitations), re-engagement campaigns (abandoned cart reminders, win-back offers), informational campaigns (product updates, feature announcements), and loyalty campaigns (rewards programs, VIP offers). All require opted-in contacts and pre-approved templates.
How does A/B testing work?
Create two or more template variations and split your audience. StartMessaging sends each variation to a test segment first, measures performance (delivery rate, open rate, click rate), then automatically sends the winning template to the remaining audience. You can test different copy, images, buttons, and CTAs.
